83% feel supported by their school administrators (vs. 63% of girls at coed schools)
All-girl learning environments champion the educational needs of girls currently underrepresented in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) majors and careers.
Girls’ school graduates are 6 times more likely to consider majoring in math, science, and technology.
